  		Fig 1. A, Cerebral T1-weighted MR image demonstrates a clot in an occluded left transverse sinus (arrow). Prominent flow voids are noted on the right (arrowhead).

B, MR venogram of the brain demonstrates the site of the dural AVM (arrow). Also noted are sigmoid sinus occlusion and prominent collateral veins to the left orbital vein.

  		Fig 2. A, Right external carotid artery angiogram shows meningeal and accessory meningeal arteries (arrows) communicating with a segment of the occluded left sigmoid sinus (asterisk).

B, Venous phase image of the right external carotid artery angiogram shows drainage of the AVM through the tentorial sinus, basal vein of Rosenthal, and orbital veins. Note the reflux into the cortical veins (arrows) and the superior sagittal sinus (arrowheads).
